Starting Couples/marriage therapy

Need more help deciding?

Would you call your relationship perfect? Probably not. Because no relationship is perfect. Would you call your relationship fulfilling, important, and worth all the effort that you put into it? Hopefully, the answer is yes. This is what matters. However, you must remember that you are going to run into challenges that threaten your relationship. Consider these examples:

  1. Amanda and Johnny are the “it” couple. They’re two peas in a pod and everyone yearns for the passionate, loving relationship they always put on display. But the truth is that they’ve been arguing nonstop lately. And they can’t seem to get out of this rough patch.
  2. Hanna and Andy don’t have a whole lot in common. This has never bothered them before but lately it’s driving a wedge into their relationship. They’re both always off doing their own thing and lack that quality time together.
  3. Grace and Julie have been trying to piece back their marriage. Julie’s family and friends tell her it isn’t worth it, but she insists that they’ll overcome Grace’s adulterous actions.

All of the above have the potential to wreck a relationship. Any of these couples can call it quits at any moment. Or, they can choose to work through their given challenge together. Sometimes, doing so successfully means working with a couples therapist or marriage counselor.

If you and your partner are looking to repair or improve your relationship, consider working with an online couples therapist or marriage counselor at Thriveworks New Jersey Counseling. These services are led by skilled, dedicated mental health professionals who will offer your relationship individualized care. To begin couples therapy or marriage counseling now, just contact our office.

What Are the Benefits of Couples Therapy and Marriage Counseling?

Effective communication, intimacy, compassion, connection, reparations. These are just a few of the benefits that you and your partner can find in couples therapy and marriage counseling. The exact benefits that you reap will depend on what has brought you to counseling. For example, Amanda and Johnny (from the example above) can benefit from learning to communicate more effectively and really dig into what’s going on with their counselor. Grace and Julie, on the other hand, can benefit from talking about the infidelity and figuring out a way forward. 

A strong relationship requires choosing to love each other

even in those moments when you struggle to like each other.”

–Dave Willis

The online couples therapists and marriage counselors at Thriveworks New Jersey Counseling can help you and your partner today. We offer two online counseling options: video counseling and phone counseling. In either medium, we can help you and your partner work through your unique challenges and find benefit in counseling. Additionally, you’ll experience some benefits that are unique to online therapy, including greater convenience and flexibility.

How Does Couples and Marriage Counseling Work?

The journey that you embark on with your partner and counselor will, again, depend on your specific needs. These include individual needs and relationship needs. For example, you might be missing date nights, but your partner doesn’t seem to care about them. If it’s important to you, however, it’s still important to your relationship. Your Thriveworks New Jersey couples therapist or marriage counselor will take all of these needs into consideration as they design your treatment plan.

Now, there are a few common goals that people find in couples therapy and/or marriage counseling:

  • Improved communication
  • Better understanding of one another’s needs
  • Improved conflict resolution skills
  • Greater trust

The relationship experts at Thriveworks New Jersey Counseling are excited for the chance to work with you and your partner. They will welcome you into a caring, compassionate, and supportive space for bettering your relationship.

Thriveworks helped me realize that I do believe people can change. I’m not the person I was three months ago, broken and fearful. I’m healthy and happy and for the first time being kind to myself. Thank you for giving me my life back.
